Bernardo Faria Teaches All Of His Best Guard Pass Techniques Updated & Tweaked For No Gi: Some Say It Works Even Better No Gi

Guard Passing Is The Hardest Part Of Jiu Jitsu, Especially No Gi.  Bernardo Has Spent Over A Decade Developing His Trademark Pressure Passing System That Will Nullify Any Guard.  Learn To Destroy Guard Players, Leg Lockers, And More.

When Bernardo gets on top, he is basically unstoppable. He clears grips, butterfly hooks, you name it… and puts pressure on the guard player until he breaks. It doesn’t matter who is on bottom, they all break. 

Here is a list of Black Belt World Champions whose guards he has passed or submitted in their guard in competition:

Leandro Lo - Gabriel Arges - Braulio Estima - Rafael LovatoErberth Santos - Rodrigo Cavaca  

Have you ever been frustrated and unable to pass someone’s guard?

You Don’t Need To Be Young, Strong Or Fast To Use Bernardo’s Method

Bernardo puts both knees on the mat when he passes. This is because when you are on the knees you shut down most of the guards including: De La Riva Guard, Berimbolo, Single Lex X Guard, X Guard, Reverse De La Riva…  Not only do you shut down the most popular open guards, you will also nullify most leg attacks.

Today leg locks are becoming more and more prevalent.  If you are grappling no gi and you do not have a passing approach that will nullify leg locks, you are putting yourself in danger.  These days standing and passing in no gi is extremely dangerous.  

When you stand and pass in no gi, you are exposing yourself to a lot of potential leg attacks, that is why pressure passing is becoming more and more popular.

Bernardo's battle tested method is the best passing system in the world to destroy leg lockers.  Once you are able to solidify Bernardo's trademark Over Under position it is virtually impossible for your opponent to engage in leg attacks or even begin to elevate you.

So much of being able to pass the guard is the ability to put someone in a position that they do not want to be in.  You need to dictate the positions in the match and make them play your game.  When you learn Bernardo's no gi pressure passing system, you will be able to take everyone out of their game.

No one will be able to heel hook, ankle lock, knee bar, toe hold, or establish any guard on you.  They will be defending the whole time.  The beauty of this passing system is that even if you are not able to pass to the guard you will be able to nullify their game completely.

What People Are Saying About Bernardo's Passing

"With Bernardo's accomplishments, he has proven how consistent and effective his Pressure Passing is. We all know he is one of the best fighters in the World, but you may not know him as an instructor. He came to my school in 2013 to teach a seminar. The seminar was only 2 two hours long, but left a legacy here. It is amazing to see, that he is not just a great competitor, but he is an amazing instructor as well. I'm sure you guys will learn a lot from him as we did here."   - Bruno Malfacine, 9X World Champion

"As a big older guy, I don't feel comfortable standing while I pass. People always seen to get under me and then all kinds of bad things happen: De La Riva, Reverse De La Riva, Spider, X Guard, 1 Leg X - all kinds of awful stuff. That all goes away when you pass like Bernardo does. I find that my passing has improved by miles with him."  - Michael Zenga, Black Belt

"My name is Pound Lamb. I am 52 years old and train at Nashville MMA. I want to sing praises on Bernardo’s half guard system. I was introduced to the Faria Guard and Pressure Passing system by a teammate last year. I promptly purchased both DVD sets and with only three months of training I was fortunate enough to win the 2015 World Masters. The system worked so easily. I was promoted to Purple belt in 2016 and placed 2nd in the 2016 World Masters. I knew this system was designed for me when I started beating upper belts half my age. It was like my game had jumped three years. This system allows me to slow the super athletic guy’s game down and places me in control. It sounds crazy but I feel like I’m literally resting in this guard while the young guys are gassing out. They know what’s coming and still have a hard time stopping it. I think this is absolutely the best guard system for masters who like beating the young guns."  -  Pound Lamb, 53 Yr old Purple Belt - Nashville, TN

"With Bernardo's accomplishments, he has proven how consistent and effective his half guard is. We all know he is one of the best fighters in the World, but you may not know him as an instructor. He came to my school in 2013 to teach a seminar. The seminar was only 2 two hours long, but left a legacy here. Half of my students here are doing his position... doing his half guard sweeps. It is amazing to see, that he is not just a great competitor, but he is an amazing instructor as well. I'm sure you guys will learn a lot from him as we did here."  -  Will Kesling, 40 Year Old Blue Belt
